I saw The Here Between at it's premiere in Denver. The director told us it was loosely based on An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce.
It's about a lynch mob preparing to hang a young black woman from a train bridge.
Jada Roberts' performance as the woman is one of the film's strongest points. Another is a "dream" sequence that is more vivid than the "real" parts of the film, adding impact to the conclusion.
The film had a sombre effect on me and, as far as I could detect, the rest of the audience.
The Here Between was mostly filmed in McGraw Park, in Bailey, Colorado, taking advantage of authentic period buildings and other structures along the river, for an historically accurate backdrop.
